Abstract

An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes an adjusting unit and a driving-situation detecting unit. The adjusting unit executes an adjustment on pieces of notification information in accordance with priorities. The driving-situation detecting unit acquires drive controlling information. The drive controlling information is information for identifying whether driving control of a moving body is manual driving or autonomous driving. The adjusting unit executes the adjustment in accordance with the priorities that are different depending on the drive controlling information acquired by the driving-situation detecting unit.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
 an adjusting unit that executes an adjustment on pieces of notification information in accordance with priorities; and 
 a driving-situation detecting unit that acquires drive controlling information, the drive controlling information being information for identifying whether driving control of a moving body is manual driving or autonomous driving, wherein 
 when notification timings of the plurality of pieces of notification information are overlapped with each other, the adjusting unit executes the adjustment that decides a notification order of the pieces of notification information, in accordance with the priorities that are different depending on the drive controlling information acquired by the driving-situation detecting unit. 
 
     
     
       2. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the notification information includes movement information on safety when the moving body travels, and 
 priorities of a first priority of the manual driving and a second priority of the autonomous driving of the movement information are higher than priorities of other notification information. 
 
     
     
       3. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the notification information includes entertainment information on entertainment of an occupant in the moving body, and 
 a second priority of the autonomous driving is higher than a first priority of the manual driving in the entertainment information. 
 
     
     
       4. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 a switch timing of the driving control is made different from a switch timing of the priority into a priority that is corresponding to the driving control. 
 
     
     
       5. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 4 , wherein
 the priority switch timing is decided based on situation information on a situation of the moving body. 
 
     
     
       6. An information processing method performed by a computer provided in a moving body, the method comprising:
 executing an adjustment on pieces of notification information in accordance with priorities; and 
 acquiring drive controlling information, the drive controlling information being information for identifying whether driving control of a moving body is manual driving or autonomous driving, wherein 
 the executing includes:
 when notification timings of the plurality of pieces of notification information are overlapped with each other, executing the adjustment that decides a notification order of the pieces of notification information, in accordance with the priorities that are different depending on the drive controlling information acquired in the acquiring. 
 
 
     
     
       7. An information processing apparatus comprising:
 an adjusting unit that executes an adjustment on pieces of notification information in accordance with priorities; and 
 a driving-situation detecting unit that acquires drive controlling information, the drive controlling information being information for identifying whether driving control of a moving body is manual driving or autonomous driving, wherein 
 the adjusting unit executes the adjustment in accordance with the priorities that are different depending on the drive controlling information acquired by the driving-situation detecting unit, and 
 a switch timing of the driving control is made different from a switch timing of the priority into a priority that is corresponding to the driving control. 
 
     
     
       8. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 7 , wherein
 the notification information includes movement information on safety when the moving body travels, and 
 priorities of a first priority of the manual driving and a second priority of the autonomous driving of the movement information are higher than priorities of other notification information. 
 
     
     
       9. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 7 , wherein
 the notification information includes entertainment information on entertainment of an occupant in the moving body, and 
 a second priority of the autonomous driving is higher than a first priority of the manual driving in the entertainment information. 
 
     
     
       10. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 7 , wherein
 the priority switch timing is decided based on situation information on a situation of the moving body. 
 
     
     
       11. An information processing method performed by a computer provided in a moving body, the method comprising:
 executing an adjustment on pieces of notification information in accordance with priorities; and 
 acquiring drive controlling information, the drive controlling information being information for identifying whether driving control of a moving body is manual driving or autonomous driving, wherein 
 the executing includes:
 executing the adjustment in accordance with the priorities that are different depending on the drive controlling information acquired in the acquiring, and 
 
 a switch timing of the driving control is made different from a switch timing of the priority into a priority that is corresponding to the driving control.
